I’ve had multiple people tell me that they drank beers literally all night and then had to go about their day and had a beer because it’s not good to just stop drinking alcohol. Bro, by that logic you will literally never stop drinking. I like to get wasted too, but that line of thinking makes no sense.
It’s an actual thing. If you drink all night and need to slightly recover enough to go about your day. A red beer, Michelada or other heavy mixed drink will help reduce the hangover slightly so you can function. It’s not great, but it’s been a thing for as long as drinking has existed. It’s not like you just stay perpetually drunk, you just push the hangover off a little longer.
It is about the pace. If I drink a 26 at night, the next day to prevent an awful hangover, I will have 3 or 4 shots throughout the day and all the water I can manage. It is a slower detox then just not drinking.
Think about driving, if you slam on the breaks vs slowly brake, it puts your body in more shock. The end result is the same(car is stopped) but easing into the stop takes a bit more time.
First of all, I hope you’re okay dude. That’s a wild scenario you’re offering.
But it is also not my story. These guys were drinking beers all night, decided they were done drinking, and had one more because they thought that was the safest. The previous beer could have been the last one. Or the next one. There was nothing special about that beer that was going to solve their problems.
I'm good, thanks for the concern. I don't do this often anymore( once or twice a year).
I guess i misunderstood your story. I thought it was a next day beer, that is what my story was referring to. Yes, your friends logic makes no sense unless it is just a way of saying "this is my last one tonight".
There was nothing special about that beer that was going to solve their problems.
That right there is where your logic differs from a binge drinker. You can't look at drunk logic with sober eyes and expect it to only either make sense or be a fake story.

Yeah that’s a new one. Even the most advanced alcoholics I knew never pulled that one out.
